ETI's developers are experienced in building a Web-based front end to many different types of databases. We use reliable open-source software like PHP, MySQL, PostgreSQL and Apache to develop a fast, flexible and user-friendly web site for your data.

Is your data distributed over different databases? No problem! We have the capacity to integrate databases and to link them together through a central web portal. We have extensive experience with protocols like DiGIR, ABCD, XML(-RPC) and SOAP.

Our flagship software package Linnaeus II 2.6 also offers you the possibility to export a completed project as a Web site, offering much of the same functionality available in Linnaeus II itself.

We also visualize geographical data on online maps. For more information about our online GIS (geographical information system) tools, please see the GIS section.

We build your Web site

ETI has a team of programmers and graphic designers to build your Web presence. We have developed sites for organisations such as NLBIF and Species 2000, as well as our own Web site of course! We are also experienced with implementing content management systems such as ZOPE. Please see our Portfolio for examples of Web sites developed by ETI.

E-learning

ETI is a leading developer in online — or distant learning — e-learning for short. Past projects have included Web sites such as EMBER, a European Union-sponsored bioinformatics course developed in cooperation with our academic partner, the University of Manchester. We have also developed popular CD-ROM-based e-learning tools such as Mitosis and Meiosis Demystified, DNA and Proteins, and an electronic version of the standard biological textbook Five Kingdoms: The Phyla of Life on Earth.

We can build you an e-learning site to meet your exact needs, be it for individual learning or class study. And we offer a variety of bells & whistles like interactive knowledge testing, 3D animations and photography, and educational games.
